I love water, and I love to swim. I am a much better swimmer under water than I amabove. I have not been able to learn or master the swimming strokes. However, underwater I am experienced and comfortable. Many people, like my mom, are afraid ofbeing under the water. They seem to be frightened of their lack of skill and then panic.I am just the opposite. When I am moving around the world, in most cases, I amanxious and uncomfortable to the point of avoidance. But under water I am relaxed andcalm.

So, if I could live under water, I would be just as normal as the next guy.We would not communicate with talking but communicate through gestures, bodylanguage, and eye movements. We would always be moving from place to placetherefore developing our bodies and keeping them healthy. We would be able todiscover a whole new world together, and for once in my life I could be the leader. Wewould travel together and depend on each other and become con?dants and build atrue friendship. We would live and survive because no one would be excluded;everyone would belong to the group and thrive because of that connection. Living under water is a nice dream, but realistically I don't want to live anywherewithout my mom, so either she learns to swim, or I am stuck coming up for air every now and then!
